Web Scraping Tutorial #3 | Complete Scrapy Project with Infinite Scroll | How To Scrape "Load More"

Part 3 of our latest Scrapy project / Web Scraping Tutorial. Getting the links. Web Scraping a large site with "infinite scroll" aka "AJAX load more". (This is based on a real world project from Upwork).

*** PART 3 of 7 ***

This covers getting the links from behind each thumbnail so we can visit the page and get the details.

As also seen on one of my recent json videos I use :

response.xpath("//script[@type='application/ld+json']/text()").get(); to get the json and load it into a dictionary to parse.

By the end of this video we have 8 links from the thumbnails page in our output CSV file.

Please comment, subscribe, like, as this is taking a lot of effort and the more comments/feedback the better we can tailor future videos to you.
